Knowledge Center 2016 SP3 Release Information

• Content Manager (formerly Architect)

• MSXML4 dependency is removed from the code base and replaced by MSXML6 [TS-11956|TS-9494]
  • Classic .ASP files, .VBS files and COM+ DLLs are modified. Typically “MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0” became “MSXML2.DOMDocument.6.0” with extra configuration for optional resolveExternals or validateOnParse properties where required.
  • Note that we had to break COM+ DLLs binary compatibility. This should however not be an issue as you are not allowed to use this interface anymore since we introduced all .NET interfaces in 2014SP1/11.0.1.
  • ConvertStyles.bat implementation changed from “MSXSL.EXE” to “xslTransform.vbs”
  • Obsolete pages regarding IndexTerms and ClassicASP implementation of PreviewExternal are removed
  • Unfortunately typical custom files like Rep*Dlg.asp are also changed. So in other words, you also need to remove the MSXML4 dependency for your custom pages!
•  “States” became “Statuses” as requested by Training department
• Web Client improvements to allow IMetadataBinding integration in Find New Publications (SearchNewPublications.asp) [TS-11701|TS-11624|SRQ-5363]
